[DeTomaso] Spinning wheel stud

Just my ramblings as a "key board" mechanic wantobe....
The head of the stud should have a flat that fitted against the inside of the disk hub to assist holding it from rotating.

Is there enough room to "see" back there?
Would it be possible to get a metal wedge in there to increase the jammimg?

Or an electric impact wrench /gun?  Sometimes the shocks will make things happen a standard wrench will not.

Hi Sean,

   Did you try loosening your spinning lug nuts with a proper air gun?A

   Just a thought...

   Cheers Bjoern

     A  A My weekend project was to remove my rear wheels and check my
     rear brake
     A  A pad wear.A  Oops, 2 of the pside lug nuts just spin and won't
     loosen
     A  A up.A  It looks like the studs are spinning and stripped.A
     First I have
     A  A to figure out how to get the lug nuts off. Drilling?A  I
     replaced the
     A  A rear bearings over 10yrs ago so I know what a PITA removing the
     hub is
     A  A going to be..A  Assume I will need rear disk replacement so
     what are my
     A  A affordable options?A  I've spent a lot of time searching the
     forum for
     A  A info but its a bit overwhelming.A  Sean M
